MR. JOSEPH PIENRY STANNARD

ISS SLADE has for forty-six years held an honored place in Providence high schools, and her retirement is deeply regretted by teachers and students in the Central High School. Miss Slade's retirement will revive among her pupils of long ago recollections of profitable hours spent in classes where she made clear the problems of mathematics and the constitutional features of our governments. More recent graduates will recall her as Dean of Girls and the source of reasonable advice, cheering encoiirage- ment, and watchful care. Those who have been privileged to know Miss Slade during these nearly fifty years have admired her singleness of purpose, her stead- fastness, her loyalty, her idealism, her patience amid tiring duties, and, withal, her optimism and keen sense of humor. Her idealism has included approval of correct behavior, respect for scholarship, and honor for nobility of character. Such idealism has been a con- stant challenge and inspiration to her associates. Miss Slade will be missed in her accustomed place, she takes with her in leaving it the wishes of her many friends that she may find in new fields, avenues for her abundant energy, as well as happy hours of well deserved leisure.
